Background:
I work for a small software company, and the people I work with (especially the boss) are on the interesting side.
Our office is in an old warehouse, in a suburb of Philly. Doesn’t look like much, but the boss owns it, and it has a nice little side-yard.
A couple of years ago these folks decided to do a little bit of suburban farming - and so we have half-a-dozen chickens in the side-yard. The folks who take care of them split the eggs and all is reasonably well (a well-constructed, fully-enclosed coop was deployed to insure that no neighborhood animals would walk off with the girls)
The Story:
Last week someone dumped a Rooster on us.
Just let that sink in a moment - someone snuck up to our building and deposited a live Rooster in the yard.
Boggles the mind, doesn't it?
One more example of the SC attitude: I shouldn’t have to deal with this, let’s just dump it on someone else. They care absolutely not one bit for anyone but themselves. Easter chick too big-and-noisy now? Eh, dump it over there, let someone else do the work.
Thanks, <bleep>, we needed one more thing to remind us that large segments of the population are no only useless, but actively getting in the way of the advancement of the human race.
Postscript: The rooster was placed was a local farmer, but that option was only available because he comes round every week with produce, and apparently likes us. If we didn't know him, I doubt he's have taken the thing.

My little housecat... one time we got an infestation of mice. Guess who got a mouse on her pillow? And my beast is agorophobic and won't go outside.
